The Street of London was presented for the first time last night by the Redmond company. It is a five act comedy drama but several cast members forgot lines and cues, dampening the show. With better memorization, it could become a strong production. Redmond also stars as Mr Kirby and John son. The Seattle Casino is swapping shows, with Hurry Berty and The Loyal Family replacing Fiddle Dee Dee. The Punkin Husker is being replaced by a new play by Lawrence Russell offering a 25 dollar prize for best tithe suggestion. Isabel Irving will appear at the Third Avenue in Winston Churchill's dramatic adaptation The Crisis, supported by James K. Hackett management.
